Peace Not War

Just trying to live life in peace The bullies bring you to your knees They send the fickle off to war Not knowing what they are fighting for We hear what they want us to hear We fear what they want us to fear Like animals that are penned They control us til the end Marching to the tune and pulling the trigger Brainwashed to make the powerful bigger Then tossed on a heap with mind fatality Left to die with no grip on reality The weak have no fight and have no say But maybe they are happy and want it that way Watching the freaks fight for control As they live life with a hollow soul
